Chapter five hundred and forty-six rapid evacuation
After Shen Hou in the afternoon, the wind direction suddenly changed and the fire quickly burned towards Mianchi.
The alliance army was prepared and decisively retreated to the city of Mianchi. Almost at the same time, the scouts reported that the situation on the front line of Shinshin-Ancheng had changed again. Yang Xuangan's assault army, who had fallen into the trap of the Xijing army, could no longer hold on to the four sides of the Xijing army and was being quickly annihilated. The most direct evidence was that the earth-shaking drums and whistle on the battlefield were getting smaller and smaller, and they were becoming more and more scattered. At the same time, Yang Xuangan and his main army were still blocked from Shinshin-Ancheng. Yang Jishan's troops, who were returning to support, were still running wildly on the south bank of the valley. All signs proved that the Xijing army had given Yang Xuangan a heavy blow, and the strategy of attacking between the east and west was difficult to continue. Next, Wei Wensheng was very likely to take a risk and fight along the avenue burned by the fire, braved the danger of burying himself in the sea of fire toward Mianchi.
The Xijing army fought continuously, and it was at the end of its strength, but at the critical moment of life and death, the dog was anxious and jumped over the wall, let alone a group of strong guards like wolves and tigers? At this moment, Li Fengyun was extremely disappointed with Yang Xuangan and had no hope for his trip to the East Capital. Next, the alliance's withdrawal from the East Capital was full of dangers. He wanted to put all his strength on the plan to go north, so he had no intention of fighting now, and just wanted to evacuate as soon as possible.
Li Fengyun ordered the generals of the army to set fire to the enemy, and we set fire to ignite all the mountains and forests around Mianchi, and surround Mianchi City in the middle of the fire. This could not only cut off the escape route of the Xijing army, but also prevent the Xijing army from engaging with the Mianchi defenders. The Xijing army had all the food and grass and could no longer support it. Even if it counterattacked by the Jedi and gave Yang Xuangan a blow, it would still be as difficult as climbing to heaven to escape from its birth.
Yuan An had to ask, once the outside of Mianchi City was covered by fire, the alliance soldiers would have no place to stand. Where would the army retreat? Should they withdraw back to the south bank of the Gushui River?
"Of course, of course we have to withdraw to the south bank of the valley water." Li Fengyun said without hesitation, "Tell your brothers that we not only need to withdraw to the south bank of the valley water, but also to Qianqiu Pavilion overnight to withdraw to Dongdu as quickly as possible."
Yuan An was surprised and happy, "We are going to evacuate the battlefield in Dongdu?"
"This decisive battle has ended. We have tried our best to help Yang Xuangan. We have abide by the agreement and fulfilled our promise." Li Fengyun sneered, "In order to prevent problems before they happen, we must take advantage of Yang Xuangan's terror and cannot take care of it and return to Dongdu quickly."
Yuan An immediately smelled a dangerous smell from this sentence, and his expression was solemn, "Yang Xuangan wants to betray his faith? Do you want to attack us?" Then he thought of something and asked immediately, "Is Yang Jishan leading his army to come, is he having other plans?"
Li Fengyun explained unintentionally. To be honest, he felt embarrassed. He was too naive, whimsical, wishful thinking, and even brought the alliance soldiers to the edge of the cliff. If it weren't for the sudden change in the battle situation, if it weren't for Wei Wensheng's counterattack, he gave Yang Xuangan a heavy blow at the critical moment, which made Yang Xuangan feel in a hurry. He was really troublesome this time. If it weren't done well, he would have a direct conflict with Yang Xuangan. Although he was sure to evacuate Dongdu safely, there would inevitably be some delay in time. The consequences of this delay were unpredictable. Once it was blocked by Zhou Fashang's navy and had to fight to the death, the price would be high.
"I'm not afraid of ten thousand, I'm afraid of anything." Li Fengyun curled his lips contemptuously and sneered, "I would rather believe in a dog than Yang Xuangan. In order to achieve my goal, I had to compromise and swallow my anger, but Yang Xuangan was too shameless. Before the decisive battle was over, he dared to tear his face and threaten him with Yang Jishan. This is unreasonable."
Seeing Li Fengyun full of resentment, Yuan An estimated that Yang Xuangan showed a ferocious face. This made the situation critical. Fortunately, the alliance never fought fiercely with the Xijing army and its strength was well preserved. On the other hand, Yang Xuangan was not able to do so. He fought fiercely for days, exhausted and scarred, and suffered great losses. Although he still had a certain advantage in military strength, Yang Xuangan would definitely not dare to break up with Li Fengyun before his physical strength recovered, which won enough time for the alliance to evacuate in time.
"Ming Gong, since this is the case, then order all the troops to retreat to the water before dark." Yuan An said decisively, "Eat and drink enough, and after a short rest, he rushed to Qianqiu Pavilion overnight."
Li Fengyun nodded and instructed, "The road on the south bank of the valley water is rugged and difficult to walk. When marching at night, we must not only pay attention to safety, but also keep quiet. We must quietly arrive at Qianqiu Pavilion, cross the river quietly, and quietly surround Yang Xuangan's back, giving Yang Xuangan a fatal threat. If he does not open the door of Hangu Pass and annoys someone, don't blame him for turning against others."
Yuan An looked at Li Fengyun in surprise. He did not expect that the conflict between the two sides would be so fierce and the situation would be so severe.
Li Fengyun sneered, "Yang Xuangan is arrogant and not only raises troops to rebel, but also conspires to usurp the country. Will such a person take us seriously? Will he give us a place?"
Yuan An thought, what kind of person is Yang Xuangan? There are only a few powerful people in the dynasty, and they are just a group of local thieves. The disparity between the two sides is too great, but Li Fengyun is very strong and has repeatedly defeated Yang Xuangan. How can Yang Xuangan bear it? Of course, he has to find an opportunity to destroy Li Fengyun.
"Don't worry, I'll go and pass the order now." Yuan An bowed and took the order and left in a hurry.
After Shen Shi in the afternoon, Yang Xuangan could not hear the sound of drums and trumpets from the battlefield in the distance. He had a premonition that Yang Xuanting might be wiped out, and his anger was beyond replenishment. He could only vent his anger with a crazy fight, but the generals under his command were very depressed and in a low mood. The great situation, which was sure to win, was only one step away from victory, suddenly reversed, and was bitten by the beast trapped in the cage, biting it backwards, and the biting was bloody and painful. Yang Xuanting and five or six thousand soldiers were wiped out. How could such an incredible thing happen? How did it happen?
Yang Xuangan made a fatal mistake in command. He shouldn't have transferred Yang Jishan and more than 10,000 troops to the direction of Mianchi. This was the beginning of the reversal of the war. It not only ruined Yang Xuanting and five or six thousand soldiers, but also ruined the good situation.
Yang Xuangan's mistake was presented to the military generals, and then the military generals realized a serious problem. Yang Xuangan was too anxious and arrogant. Before the decisive battle was over, he began to attack Li Fengyun. He was an ally who shared life and death, so why bother to fight each other? As a result, the military generals discovered another terrible crisis. The furious Li Fengyun saw the reversal of the battle and Yang Xuangan suffered a heavy blow. Will he take the opportunity to attack behind his back?
Perhaps the morale was hit hard, perhaps because the battle was too tiring for days, or perhaps the new crisis made the generals alert. Besides, the Xijing army suffered heavy losses after annihilated Yang Xuanting. Just wait for Yang Jishan to come with the support of the army and launch a fierce attack to destroy the Xijing army's defense line. This decisive battle will be over. Therefore, no matter how Yang Xuangan leads the way or supervises the battle strictly, the attack will be difficult to improve, and it will not pose a fatal threat to the Xijing army's defense line.
At dusk, Yang Jishan and Li Mi led their troops to arrive, but the army was exhausted and fought for two days and two nights in a row. Especially today, they ran back and forth for more than 80 miles. The soldiers were exhausted and paralyzed. Not to mention that they would immediately join the battle, they would even stagger and unable to support their walking.
Yang Xuangan had to face the reality and ordered the stop to attack, eat and sleep, accumulate energy, and fight again tomorrow. Of course, tomorrow's battle will be relaxed. While the Xijing army surrounded and annihilated Yang Xuanting, it also exhausted all its strength. Even if they were given a night of rest, they could not escape the fate of being wiped out by the entire army.
Yang Xuangan was anxious and uneasy. Hu Shidan expressed his consolation. There was no exact news that Yang Xuanting had been wiped out at present. In other words, although the battle stopped, Yang Xuanting might still be persisting and was surrounded by the Xijing army. The reason is very simple. Wei Wensheng and others need a way out. Since the possibility of breaking through from the Mianchi direction no longer exists, of course, they need to think of other ways, and luring Yang Xuanting into a trap and threatening Yang Xuangan to find a way out in order to find a way out.
Hu Shidan's guess is still somewhat reasonable. Yang Xuangan's mood immediately improved. After a little thought, he asked, "If your speculation is correct, when will they send messengers?"
"Of course, the earlier the better," said Hu Shidan. "The longer the time delays, the more unfavorable it will be for them."
Yang Xuangan nodded slowly and turned to Li Mi, "Is there any news in Mianchi?"
Li Mi shook her hand, "Don't worry, Ming Gong, it's related to the overall situation. Since Bai Hai promised, she will not repent."
"The wind direction has changed, and the fire has burned towards Mianchi. In order to ensure the safety of the army, it is very likely that the white hair will retreat to the south bank of the valley water." Yang Xuangan said worriedly, "If Wei Wensheng risked the danger of burying into the sea of fire, and the white hair did not stop him, he would have the opportunity to meet with Zheng Yuanshou."
Master Hu was worried about understanding and immediately said to Li Mi, "Pushan Gong, it is better for you to take charge of Mianchi to avoid any trouble."
Li Mi remained silent and sighed secretly.
Hu Shidan was just deceiving himself. Wei Wensheng dug Yang Su's tomb and had already lost his way out. It is certain that Yang Xuanting was finished and his entire army was wiped out. Next, the morale of the Xijing army was greatly boosted and their confidence increased. They would inevitably have to fight Yang Xuangan to the end. Yang Xuangan, who suffered a severe injury and lost a good situation, would he be angry and in chaos. The soldiers of the army were also hit hard and their morale was sluggish. Therefore, tomorrow's decisive battle is not only fierce, but also the possibility of a "turnaround". Unless Li Fengyun supports it in time, will Li Fengyun still help?
Yang Xuangan was too anxious and exposed his intention to eat Li Fengyun early on. With Li Fengyun's character, how could he let him slaughter? Li Fengyun was about to "escape". He had to take advantage of Yang Xuangan's severe damage before the end of the decisive battle and evacuate quickly. Once Li Fengyun left, he would not actually affect the overall situation. As long as the decisive battle was successful, Yang Xuangan made a fatal mistake and ruined Yang Xuanting and five or six thousand elite soldiers in vain. This not only directly affected the result of the decisive battle, but also seriously affected the plan to move westward to Guanzhong.
The more Li Mi thought about it, the more frustrated he became. He pondered for a little while and said in a pun, "If someone rushed to Mianchi overnight, he might anger his white hair, and he would really get into trouble. Tomorrow morning, I will go to Mianchi again."
